Golf Pot
At Stake
By JERRY L1SKA
CHICAGO I National Open
Champion Julius Boros and golf'i
wealthiest stroker of 1853, Cary
Middlecotf, met today in an 18
hole playoff for golf's biggest prise,
the $25,000 top payoff of the
"world" meet.
The showdown will resolve the
deadlock Mlddlecoff and Boros
created by finishing the $90,000
Tarn O'Shanter show yesterday
with identical 376's. 12 under par.
Some sharp bickering marked
the high-pressured chase after pro
moter George S. Mays rich en
dowment, which Includes a $13,500
second-spot bundle for the loser of
today' playoff.
Three players Dave Douglas,
Jack Burke and Ed Furgol, who
shared lesser loot complained
that Mlddlecoff slowed up proceed
lngs 45 minutes to accomodate
televising; of the finish. This trio
protested that the delay, ordered
by meet sponsors, cooled off their
games as they stood around lean
ing on their . clubs.
TIES SNEAD
Douglas was the foremost fin
isher in the post-Middlecoff three
some, winding up at 379 In a fifth
place 'tie with pre-meet favorite
Sammy Snead, to collect $3350.
Douglas shot a closing 68.
Third spot, a stroke behind the
deadlocked Middlecotf and Boros,
was shared by Argentina's Roberto
de Vicenio and the 36-hole leader,
Jim Perrier, who each pocketed a
tidy $4,000 for their 277's.
Mlddlecoff, Sl-year-old pro of
five years, has won $15,339 to lead
the pro golfers to date. If he should
Mlddlecoff will have clinched one
ol tne years wggesi money gnus
elnce the war-time era of Byron
Nelson, with some $40,000 in the
bank.
Ironically, when Mlddlecoff was
introduced at the first tee yester
day as the 1953's top money-winner
he Quipped: "That'll be the last
time you'll hear that this year."
Then he proceeded to shoot a
phenomenal round of 31-33 64, the
best since Lloyd Mangnun fired a
Tarn record-making 32-3163 in the
1948 world. '
UNHERALDED !
Boros, who won the 1962 National
Open as an unheralded pro of only
three years, was again a pressure
defying contender. As he fashioned
a 32-3567 to match the 276 ef the
earlier-finishing Mlddlecoff. -
The overshadowed but still lucra
tive "world" women's pro meet
went to a silver-haired Texan,
Betty Jameson of Ban Antonio, who
stood off rugged Patty Berg of
Chicago by a stroke to capture
the $5,000 first prize. She had a
303.
Defending Champion Frank
Stranahan of Toledo, Ohio, zoomed
off with his third straight "world"
amateur crown with a record
breaking 280. He finished nine
strokes ahead of Bill Campbell,
Huntington, W. Va., leader over
the first three rounds.
The "world" women's amateur
champion was national collegiate
titlist, Mary Ann VUlegas of New
Orleans, who rallied to win by a
stroke over Joyce Ziske of Water
ford, Wis., 325 to 326.

Shantz in Bid for 21st Victory
By RALPH RODEN
Associated Press Sports Writer
Bill Veeck, happy-go-lucky owner
of the St. Louis Browns, Is en
joying a laugh at the expense of
his old pal Hank Greenberg, gen
eral manager of the Cleveland In
dians today.
Greenberg recently charged the
major's master showman of trying
to knock the Indians out of the
American League pennant race by
trading "good" players to the
Chicago White Sox.
"He seems to want to embarrass
us and make our job tougher at
every opportunity," Greenberg
added.

reality yesterday as the lowly

The Seattle Ra inters, back in
the Pacific Coast League first
division after a fat week at Sacra

the nine that knocked them into
the second division when they last
met two weeks ago.
The Ra inters and Beavers play
single game at Portland Mon
day, then shift to Seattle for a
seven-game series.
Seattle clipped the last-place
Solons 9-3 and 6-4 Sunday for a

A victory would have moved the
Indians to within a game of the
pace-setting New York Yankees
but by missing the boat the Indians
dropped two games back. The
Yanks and third-plaoe Boston were
rained out.
In other American League
games Philadelphia and Washing
ton swapped 4-2 decisions and Chi
cago captured a double header
from Detroit. 3-1 and 5-4.
Rain curtailed action In the Na
tional League, wiping out games
between Brooklyn's front-running
Dodgers and Philadelphia and be
tween the runner-up New York
Giants and the Boston Braves. The
Dodgers command the field by
eight games.
In the only games played, Chica-
Angeles twice Sunday while Angel
fans tried to whip the umpire.
The scores were 12-3 and 6-1 and
the fan brawl led to the arrest of
seven men. San Diego held the
pace with a pair of wins over
San Francisco S-0 and 6-4.
Plate umpire Ed Runge became
the fans' target in the near-riot
at Los Angeles. He ruled Holly
wood catcher Jim Mangan safe
at home in the 10th inning of the
first game, thus giving the Stars
a one-run . lead.
A prolonged rhubarb resulted in
Angel manager Stan Hack being
thumbed out of the park.
At the close' of the Stars' tum,
four fans, came out of the stands
and one wrestled Runge to the
ground. Players and police col
lared the fans and other spectators

stands were also placed In custody.

4-3, and St. Louis and Cincinnati
divided a twin bill. The Cards won
the opener. 3-3, and tht Reds the
nightcap, 4-3.
Cleveland's defeat was doubly
bitter as former Indian Fred Marsh
accounted for the deciding runs
with a three-run homer In the
fourth Inning. The blow was
Marsh's first of the season.
Marsh, whose ' error enabled
Cleveland to beat the Browns
Saturday night, connected with two
